Should states grant driver’s licenses to illegal immigrants?

As Reuters reported, “Illinois took a major step on Tuesday toward granting drivers licenses to illegal immigrants. … The Democratic-controlled state Senate voted 41-14 to approve licenses for illegal immigrants to raucous cheers from the legislative gallery.

“If approved by the House, also with a majority of Democrats, and signed into law by Democratic Gov. Pat Quinn, Illinois would join only two other states, Washington and New Mexico, in granting such drivers licenses. Utah allows driving permits. On Jan. 1, California will allow immigrants with federal work permits to receive licenses.”

Whaddya think?

— Should illegal immigrants be granted driver’s licenses … or some other kind of driving permits?
